The school in question
MARION, Ill. - Social media is still buzzing in response to a school shooting threat happening in Marion on Wednesday, November 14, 2018.
Some parents were reluctant about sending their child to school even today (Friday, Nov. 16).
A sixth grader, it's being reported to our correspondent, made a statement with the intent.
School officials had the situation under control within minutes and the student was dealt with harshly, we've been told.
Marion Police Chief Dawn Tondini says they take each and every one of these threats seriously; and it has been investigated and there’s no danger.
